Do you know that color pictures are more addictive than black-and-white ones? I once read this fact, and recently I put it to use.

Lately, I’ve been watching too many silly animal videos. Don’t ask me why I find them cute, but I do. My kids think I’m weird, but watching cute cats do cute things warms my heart.

The problem is that I find myself watching these silly videos a lot. I wanted to cut back, but it wasn’t as easy as it sounds. Then I remembered this fact about color being addictive.

There’s this nifty setting on my phone that switches everything to black and white instead of color, and it worked! Seeing the videos was not as interesting somehow. Now, I find myself watching less, and it feels nice to be in control
